The offseason carousel kept spinning Tuesday for Arkansas baseball.

According to a source who spoke with Daniel Fair at HawgBeat, left-handed pitcher Colin Fisher has entered the transfer portal and he’s doing it with one eye on the MLB Draft.

Fisher is draft-eligible and in his money year, which means his portal entry isn’t just about finding a new school.

It gives him real leverage with pro scouts and MLB clubs.

If his name called in the upcoming draft, entering the portal could work in his favor during negotiations.

The Noble, Okla., native spent three seasons with the Hogs. He turned into one of the program’s more reliable starting options this past year.

What Fisher brought to the rotation

He wasn’t just an occasional arm out of the bullpen. Fisher started 10 of the 18 games he appeared in this season, giving the Razorbacks consistent rotation depth.

The numbers show a pitcher with real strikeout stuff.

In 56.1 innings of work, Fisher punched out 58 batters while issuing just 17 walks.

His ERA sat at 5.59, which leaves something to build on wherever he lands next.

Tuesday was the final day to enter the transfer portal, so Fisher’s timing puts him right at the deadline.

Arkansas has now lost 10 players to the portal this cycle

Fisher’s departure isn’t happening in a vacuum. He’s the 10th Razorback to enter the transfer portal this offseason, per Fair’s report at HawgBeat. It caps a cycle that saw a significant wave of roster movement in Fayetteville.

The full list of departures includes fellow left-handers Joey Lorenzini and Jacob Imoto, right-hander Grant Wren, infielders Cayden Mitchell, Tyler Holland and Carson Brumbaugh, utility man Landon Schaefer, catcher Carson Willis and first baseman Alexander Peck.

That’s a roster rebuild in progress for Dave Van Horn’s staff.

The Hogs made the NCAA Tournament this past spring, but this offseason has made clear that the 2027 roster will look considerably different.
